the crit

I'm really happy to say that our movie done extremely well in the crit with no criticism on a negative view but instead good feedback...

just a bit of this and a bit of that then, yep, perfect.

if you haven't noticed there is one major sign of lack of continuity in the middle of the sequence when Mr smiths bag got left in the frame with a change of the angle showing a magnificent disappearing act. but thanks to a bit of stretching the video has no nasty errors.

LADYS AND GENTLEMAN, BOY AND GIRLS TEACHERS OF ALL AGES... LET ME PRESENT TO YOU THE OPENING TO OUR FILM CANERY

So the final piece of our work is finally produced and how proud are we with the out come of our hard work.

The mixture of footage of canary wharf and the followed character blend in well with the carefully constructed music thank to Joseph. we where extremely lucky with the weather and lighting on our day of filming in canary wharf and for me the lighting of the area was what made those shots so interesting and gloomy in a certain way.

The opening sequence works for our idea in trying to create a mind set for the audience of a slow paced film with a bit of mystery but will that be the way the story goes maybe, maybe not.

WHATS THAT NOISE???

this is the awesome soundtrack set up by Joe which we all agree fits perfect with the clips we collected and creates the mood we were looking for trying to get the audience hypnotised with the footage on screen while building tension to the beginning of the film which if we made it would start with a fast pace, loud start to surprise the audience.

WHAT WE'RE GOING BY...

we do have a storyboard however an error has prevented us to put it up on the blog and hope to get it up as soon as possible.

HOW IS IT GOING???

we have just started editing the clips together and everything is going smoothley joe and his brother have been working on the soundtrack which will complete the work.

this is final cut pro the system we used to edit on it is quite complicated but ive now learned the basics thanks to adam and joe's expiriance on this system.

THE NEW HITCHCOCK....

Just like when Hitchcock appears in the Opening of "North by North West" we decided to slip me into a crowd scene. This is not really important to the sequence but still.
Here is Alfred Hitchcock appearing in the Saul Bass title sequence:

Here are the screenshots taken of our scene whilst being edited in Final Cut Pro:
